Lesson for April 14
HEZEKIAH LEADS HIS
PEOPLE BACK TO GOD
2 Chronicles 30:19, 25-27
Rev. Samuel D. Price. D. D.
It is bad enough for individ-
uals to drift into wickedness,
but the general situation is far
worse when the ruler of a na-
tion actually promotes plans
for wrong doing. This was
the case in Judah under king
Ahaz. The worship of: Jeho-
vah was spumed and the peo-
ple were led into idoltry, with
the immoral conditions that at-
tended such devotion. Isaiah's
entreaties to turn to and trust
in God had been ridiculed and
the people were under heavy
tribute to the king of Assyria.
Meanwhile the Northern King-
dom, Israel, had about run its
course and Assyrian captivity
resulted.
Hezekiah was the good son
of a base father. Here is the
signal instance of a child being
superior to his environment,
and pure in spite of all the filth
in home and community. Ail
credit to the boys and girls of
today who refuse to be drag-
ged down to the level of un-
worthy parents, but wljo make
the most of advantages that
are open'to all, and make good
in this world of keen competi-
tion.
The king had learned much
as regent and began his own
science was to be reckoned
with.
Basic in the experience of
religious life is the observances
of ordinances established by
the Almighty. The Passover
had been neglected. Now the
nations were called on to ob
serve this meaningful feast,
though a month later than the
usual time. Invitations were
sent to the ten tribes of Israel
as well as to Judah and Benja-
min. Many scorned the caR
but multitudes did attend. The
iaw was studied with great
care that the ritual might be
exactly observed. Confessions
of sin were simultaneous with
the offering of sacrifices. Wor-
ship was the joy of the hour,
and When the seven days pre-
scribed for the Passover had
been completed, the king and
people were so zealous in the
declarations of their new
obedience to Jehovah that a
second period of seven days
was observed with added joy
and benefit. As the people
returned to their homes and
daily life they had a personal
consciousness of the meaning
in our Golden Text: “Jehovah
your God is gracious and merci-
ful.”
Thus king Hezekiah led his
people back to God. Anyone
can be a leader in fact all are,
for each exerts unconscious as
well as conscious influence.
There are reforms within the
ability of each one and we are

“That spring litter of pigs is
probably getting plenty of
grazing now but in a few
months native pastures will be
dried up and the pigs will need
some green stuff,” according to
E. R. Eudaly, swine specialist
in the Extension Service. "The
farmer who looks ahead by-
planting some Sudan grass now
will be in position to keep his
pigs growing right on through
the summer, and sometimes
this means the difference be-
tween 'making a little money
and losing some. Hogs on pas-
ture consume less grain, grow
faster and make more dollars
than those in dry lots. A few
acres of Sudan grass planted
in two or three foot rows at the
rate of 8 to 10 pounds of seed
per acre at this time will fur-
nish good grazing for hogs,
chickens and work stock until
late summer.
